Ridley Scott brought us the original Alien in 1979. Loaded with the science fiction aesthetic that was popular at the time, this film successfully merged the genre with horror in a way that has not been copied since. Due to the success of horror films such as Halloween, this film set out to be a slasher in space.
Sigourney Weaver took on the role of the final girl in this film and was soon back on the screen a few years later in Aliens, this time directed by James Cameron. Since then, a franchise and comics, toys, video games, and films have been born. If you loved any of the films, including the ones that crossed over with the Predator franchise, then you are a true Alien hunter. It is time to test your Aliens trivia skills against your friends with the ultimate Aliens trivia questions and answers.
